As many as 15 Fortune Global 500 companies are set to showcase their innovative technologies and further broaden their market reach at the seventh China International Import Expo (CIIE) through the Trade in Services exhibition.

Spanning 30,000 square meters, this exhibition area draws both well-known entities, including the Big Four global accounting firms, as well as newcomers like the multinational Swire Group.

The exhibition is themed "Green and Low-carbon Development, Stable and Strong Chains, and Digital and Smart Future." It will display a wide array of offerings, including supply chain services, consulting, and financial services. The objective is to deliver digital, integrated, and low-carbon management solutions for global supply chains, fostering a collaborative and eco-friendly transformation of the industrial sector.

Companies like DB Schenker, a division of the German rail operator, along with Dun & Bradstreet, a U.S.-based commercial data and analytics firm, are eager to present business opportunities by showcasing their advanced services at the expo.

At DB Schenker's booth, attendees can explore the company's comprehensive logistics and transportation solutions across air, sea, rail, and contract logistics.

In light of the logistics and supply chain industry's ongoing digital transformation, these offerings are designed to support the development of a collaborative, efficient, and environmentally sustainable logistics market in China, benefiting various sectors such as automotive, consumer retail, and aerospace.

Dun & Bradstreet will introduce ChatD&B, the first global generative AI assistant that delivers real-time, actionable insights on businesses at the event. This AI assistant will allow users to swiftly gather pertinent information about business entities through natural language conversations, assisting them in making informed decisions across different areas, including customer engagement.

Moreover, global air service provider Cathay Pacific Airways will unveil its newly released cabin products in the mainland market for the first time during the expo.

The introduction of these sophisticated services and AI tools highlights the expo's significance as a hub for attracting foreign companies and investments.

Jacqueline Jiang, Chair of Swire, articulated her hopes as a new exhibitor, aiming to share opportunities for high-quality development in China and to explore new paths characterized by openness, exchange, cooperation, and mutual benefit through the CIIE.

Scheduled to take place from November 5 to 10, the seventh CIIE has garnered participation from 152 countries, regions, and international organizations.
